It was kind of scary seeing Anita in such a cool maxi dress. She suddenly looked so much older. I think she felt it too cause she turned the attitude way up. Needless to say she really loves her new dress.

The Akinori has been on my to do list forever. After seeing so many gorgeous ones in my FB and Insta feed earlier this summer I knew it had to be my first sew after our summer holiday. Finally I have my very own Akinori!

It does look like wrap dresses are the thing these days. Usually I’m about a year or two behind on what’s in, but I actually have sewn a few both true and faux wrap dresses both in jersey and woven. I’ll put links to my previous posts at the bottom, but this post is all about the brand new Ava Wrap dress from Wardrobe by me.

I just tested for a new to me pattern company and it’s always a little nerve wracking to test for a new pattern designer. But I’m happy to report that testing for Sofiona Designs was a great experience and I hope to get the opportunity again.

I’m about to show you one of the most flattering pattern I have ever sewed. It just hugs the body in all the right places and it looks awesome on all sorts of body types. Here is the awesome Mirri from Wardrobe by me.
